Facing Fear: Remember, God Is Bigger

What is your biggest fear right now? Maybe it’s the fear of failure, rejection, the unknown, or something deeply personal that keeps you awake at night. Fear has a way of creeping in, whispering lies that you are not strong enough, not capable enough, not enough. But here’s the truth: God is bigger than your fear.

Fear thrives in isolation. It grows louder when we try to face it alone. But you weren’t meant to carry it by yourself. Seek help. Talk to someone you trust—a friend, a pastor, a therapist. There is strength in admitting that you need support, and there is no shame in reaching out.

One of the best ways to overcome fear is to confront it with truth. What does God say about you? He says you are loved (Romans 8:38-39). You are chosen (1 Peter 2:9). You are not alone (Deuteronomy 31:6). When fear tells you that you can’t, remind yourself that God can.

Pray. Surrender your fear to Him, even if you have to do it over and over again. Fear loses its grip when we trust God’s plan more than our own anxieties.

Take action, even when you’re scared. Fear will always try to keep you stuck, but faith moves forward. One step at a time, you will find that what once felt impossible becomes manageable.

Whatever you are facing, God is bigger. You don’t have to have all the answers, and you don’t have to be fearless—you just have to trust the One who holds it all in His hands.

High Functioning Depression

High Functioning Depression

ai generated 8539920 1280
Let’s learn about some technical terms. High functioning depression is a real thing and it is what I function on daily. Now, when I’m in a super funk, that is a bit different but that is for another day. I have said this once and I will say it again, I am NOT ashamed of my mental health issues. It is part of who I am and I can use the brokenness to minister to a lot of people. God is still with me, He still loves me and He allows me to use my story for His glory.
High Functioning Depression can be hard to notice but there are still signs that something isn’t quite right. Looks can, and often are, deceiving. Someone may be smiling on the outside and look completely put together, but on the inside they are dying. A person with high functioning depression can get up, go about their day, be a parent, go to work, cook dinner, and do all the things but when the darkness settles in, the monsters come out to play in their head.
They are told something negative or someone says something mean to them and before you know it, that person has validated all the feelings that you already have and it has set you on a course of destruction. A person can begin to spin or spiral out of control. It happens so fast.
Some other things to watch out for in yourself or another person is persistent sadness, fatigue, self-criticism, isolation, irritability, sleep issues, low motivation, low self-esteem, hopelessness, and indecisiveness. As I look at this list, I can mark every single one of them, however, I can mask pretty well until I don’t.
Psalm 62:5 says “Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him.” God loves you and there is always hope when you have Him close to you. He never leaves you. You may turn your head and feel His distance but if you sit and listen closely, He is whispering in your ear that He will never leave you or forsake you. Hold on to Truth. Hold onto hope. You are worth it!
